Well, boys and girls, once upon a time Gulf had a very successful past, although that has now disappeared into the history books.
The reason it was successful then is that those of us who worked in Gulf had a vision of what we wanted to achieve, and we got on with the job without griping, in spite of some challenging conditions and upsets.
I read these threads about Gulf Air with disbelief at the moronic mindsets of most of the contributions. None of you would have lasted 3 minutes in the really old, pioneering, Gulf Air before being slung out.
The airline still has the potential to be very good. But it is going to be brought down by its staff regardless of what its shareholders do, as far as I can tell if these threads indicate a general attitude (which may well not be the case) and you all richly deserve the consequences.
But the main problem is old management from the failed Gulf Air past,

but while doing it show some respect to the others who wants to stay here.

Trend 900 and Old but not bold,
Thanks to attitudes like yours, complacency has settled into this airline and now everything goes.
You accept that corruption carries on, the reputation of your crew and the reputattion the airline has made itself.
Need I say more?

OK, to all of you waiting in eager anticipation of Gulf Air's demise, forget it
Gulf Air is not going to go out of business. That is the complete position of the Crown Prince and the Bahrain Government. Bahrain cannot afford for Gulf Air to collapse. If the other Gulf states can run uncompetative airlines by pumping cash into them them that is what the Bahrain Gov will also have to do.
Just remember that the CP said that Bahrain was going to have a Grand Prix and the naysayers came out in force and were spectacularly disproved. Well the CP has stated that Bahrain needs Gulf Air, I aint gonna dispute his words.

Sure buddy, same thoughts were on Pan American, TWA, Eastern, Braniff International, Swiss Air, Sabena, Viasa, Varig, Aerolineas Argentinas, Lloyd Aero Boliviano, Ladeco, Aces Colombia, etc, etc, etc. They all (management and in some particular cases, crewmembers) thought their companies were never going to be out of the market, werenŽt they? but it turned out to be all the way around and now all of them are way out of the market for long time now and let me tell you, IŽm talking about companies way more powerful than GF (Pan Am, Eastern, TWA, etc) with more money and capacity. Really admire guys like you but also think you all are very naive and stupid but weŽll have fun when the st hits the fan and see you drowning altogether with the titanic (GF). Never stop believing but think youŽll lose your chance in other companies for being naive. Say hi to AD and BN.
